Roberto here: This week we will be assisting the good folks at the FXWARS forum.
We will be doing some concept art for their next challenge (RACE CAR CRASH!)

Please feel free to draw images of ANY time period, time present or future. The race cars, can be from any sport league (nascar, f1, go kart, Vulcan desert league etc) The idea is for the good folks at the FX wars forum to try to make your drawings come to life.
Today's Note:

Imagine that you have been contacted by an FX studio to DESING race cars. They can be from ANY era, past present or future.

*You can add multiple entries, but please dont post WIP (Unless you intend to update them). NEW RULE!
* Ill post ANOTHER thread to quantify and track WHO has participated the most on these threads.

Well, I gave up on the time thing because I designed as I went, did alot of eraseing, etc.. so my paper was probably almost blank after 25 min. and I didn't time it after that. So yeah, no idea, but i did try to do it speedily. :D
Oh and it's equipped for night racing with neon lights :)

These are all good ones, especially jeroentje, twistercash, mybutterflyiris, Davey, smurph. I didn't spend much time on mine, because I figured I'd just ruin it if I went on... Well 10 mins, PSCS2.

Sorry this guy is pretty large but I compressed it alot. I was too lazy to throw it into PS. Spent just under 30 on it. It didn't really turn out much like I wanted the hood to. I was trying to get more of a force perspective type of feel when I imagined it. I really should draw more.

soory i exceeded the time it took me almost an hour for the sketch' im just tooo exited to put some details http://img132.imageshack.us/img132/1909/racecar26ar.jpg

THE VOLKSWAGEN STILL RULEZZZ! HEHEHE :P

JCGA: i really like your choice of colors
paperclip: actually that's very aerodynamic in shape.. if you had more time to detail it, i think it'd be awesome :)
mybutterflyiris: very expressive strokes, cool concept
smurph: awesome design!
nards26: vibrant colors :D

Alias Sketchbook 2, Wacom Graphire 3. I don't know, it probably resembles it, but i couldn't take the image of a yellow Saleen SR7 off my head :)

Went over a bit, about 30 mins for the lot +scanning/ps-ing time. The times are written next to each. Design suffered from the time limit, should've done fewer drawings with a better design.

I made this one for the new thread " Race Track" But I focal too much on the car and did this one.
I use 45 min as in the " Race Track " thread. So, I have no screen of what it was at 25 min. Sorry ! I'm disqualified for this day :shrug:

Great work to all !

Well been a while since I posted in the DSG but I've been looking for an excuse to do a car sketch. The initial sketch was done in 20 minutes in Painter but it took 120 minutes to render in Photoshop, so I guess Im a bit over.

I was going for a semi-futuristic club racer like a Cobra or Elise which, of course, were my inspirations for this drawing.
